Turns out I was my holding my 3DS wrong, I can use 3DS now. Only for like 30 minutes and I still prefer to play on 2D anway, but its nice to know when something like Kid icarus comes along.

Also: Ridge Racer is amazing. Must-buy 3DS title, and only $20. So much fun.

Do you own the hardware yet, because I'm assuming the new technology is meant to prevent any possible eye strain, rising above "common" 3D

Yeah, I posted earlier that I figured out it was the way I was holding my system that messed me up. 3D still hurts my eyes, but no more than a normal 3D movie.

EDIT: I am loving my 3DS. It has nice build quality, the 3D is a cool addition, and my games are nice (RR and PW)

My only complaint about the device is that the top screen has a bit of give, which is annoying.

Explain a bit more, I dont get it. My biggest issue hardware wise is probablly the stylus. Very small and uncomfortaable.

Dragon ZERO, when I lift my top screen, it doesn't lock into place, it has just a little bit of wiggle room so it will flop back and forth if I tilt the system. Nothing game breaking, but a slight annoyance.

And you are extending the stylus, right? I found it to be much more comfortable than my DS lite stylus.

Mine doesn't do that. Wierd.

Edit: Okay, so for all of the Okami Defense force, Shinrau, the wolf that defeated Orochi the first time 100 years ago is really Amitarasu, right? They are the same character I mean, or did I totally misunderstand that game?

I'm not 100% sure, but I do not believe that's exactly the case. I believe it's more of a reincarnation type deal rather than the same wolf, because you fight with him against those owl things. Not 100% sure though, haven't played it in a while.

Just ship it now, before Zelda, Icarus, and other AAA games come out and you wont want to tear yourself away. Better now than right before you beat OoT.

It's nothing major, but it is annoying, especailly with it new. Hopefully it won't get worse, or I'll be shipping it off to Nintendo.

My DS Lite's hinge had some issues with the hinge when I first got it in around 2007. I just ignored it and then sometime last year it snapped right off. Nintendo fixed it for free though, and all I had to pay was my end of the postage. My advice is to either return it to the store or send it now, while the console's games aren't that great.
